BOSTON -- In a career filled with milestones and benchmarks, Paul Pierce moved up in the rankings in yet another statistical category.

Pierce passed Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon to claim the 18th all-time spot in free throw attempts. The Celtics captain entered the game with 7,617 attempts, four shy of Olajuwon, and finished the game with six shots at the line during the Celtics 107-89 win over the Toronto Raptors.

Pierce reached the mark in his 1,035th regular season game. Olajuwon played in a total of 1,238.

The 35-year-old will have to get to the line quite a bit before reaching the 17th spot. Dolph Schayes holds the spot with 7,904 attempts.
